Mini Fillo Pastry Stuffed with Peas, Onions and Capers

Mini Fillo Pastry Stuffed with Peas, Onions and Capers.  Sweet tasting garden peas are gently sautéed with onions and capers then stuffed into mini flaky pastry shells and baked for a few minutes, makes them the perfect bite-size appetizer!

I decided to make an easy appetizer using Mini Fillo Shells, which I picked up at the freezer section at the supermarket.  I wanted to make a warm appetizer that I can make ahead of time, but not one filled with cheese or cream.   These are bite size pastry shells filled with a vegetable mixture that are delicious and fun to eat!

Not only are these Mini Fillo Pastry Stuffed with Peas, Onions and Capers easy and delicious, but they come together in no time!  Make ahead, then heat them up as your guests arrive! Then watch how they’ll disappear.  They will definitely impress everyone at your next party or gathering!

A great tip our mom gave us when entertaining, is to calculate about 2 to 3 appetizers for each person. Then you can get an idea on how many to make for each appetizer, based on how many guests will be attending.

I love these Athens Mini Fillo pastry shells.  They come already fully baked, making it easy to just fill and serve!

Easy Directions:

  1. Made the banana and strawberry kabobs..Went very well at kids party..But…how do we keep the bananas from browning on the sticks?

    1. Hi Anonymous! Try sprinkling powdered sugar generously onto bananas before the chocolate goes on, then refrigerate immediately. This should help prevent the bananas from browning.
